The Navy recently announced the fiscal year 2015 Aviation Department Head Retention Bonus (ADHRB) for active duty aviators and for full time support (FTS) aviators. ADHRB provides incentives to retain skilled pilots and naval flight officers (NFO) to fill critical aviation billets and is part of the Aviation Career Continuation Pay (ACCP) program. Active duty officers who sign ADHRB contracts incur five years of obligated service. Active duty aviators who accept ADHRB are eligible for the Career Intermission Pilot Program (CIPP). Officers interested in both ACCP and CIPP should contact the ACCP program manager and their detailer for more details. For details and eligibility and application procedures for active duty, visit the Navy Personnel Command (NPC) ACCP webpage; for FTS, visit the NPC FTS Aviation webpage.
